Chapter 6
Noelle had been married for eight years and knew Tommy. She looked at Tommy and stepped back cautiously. “What if I say it wasn’t me?”
“Noelle, don’t be like this…”
Tommy pressed on step by step, his voice trembling, his eyes reddened and seeing Noelle was reluctant to admit it, he suddenly grabbed Noelle’s neck. “Think about your parents. You don’t want to be an orphan again, do you? I remember they are afraid of the sea, right?”
Tommy raised a strange smile at the corner of his mouth. Looking at the crazy look of the man in front of him, Noelle’s mind was filled with the despair when his parents were drowned in the previous life.
It was like this again. Noelle felt a surge of blood rushing to her head. She kept slapping Tommy’s hands with both hands, trying to steal a breath of fresh air from his palm. Seeing Noelle’s painful appearance, Tommy’s eyes flashed with a trace of pity, but the strength did not decrease. “Tell me where Camilla is. The child is innocent anyway. I know you are the kindest. My people are on the way to find your parents.”
With a whisper, Noelle’s psychological defense line completely collapsed.
Tears instantly overflowed from the corners of her eyes and the warm tears flowed to the back of Tommy’s hand. His hand trembled and the strength also became lighter.
“Okay, I’ll tell you.”
Noelle lied for the first time.
She casually gave a clue and Tommy really let go of her hand and asked the people who went to find her parents to withdraw. Before leaving, he said to the servant beside him, “Take good care of the lady. She is not allowed to go out without my permission.”
The door was closed again. Noelle collapsed on the ground. She covered her neck and gasped.
Perhaps it was because the emotions after rebirth had been suppressed for too long, at this moment her tears could not be controlled and fell down. In a moment, she trembled and took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer and lit it for herself with trembling hands.
The smell of cigarettes gradually filled the air.
The smell of nicotine gradually calmed Noelle’s heart.
On the other side, Tommy actually followed Noelle’s clues and found Camilla, to be precise, he found the last place where Camilla appeared.
The seaside.
Almost instantly, Tommy thought of Noelle.
Just because he threatened Noelle to throw her parents into the sea, Noelle did this to Camilla first. He pinched his eyebrows, his eyebrows full of anger and helplessness.
He just wanted a child.
As for Camilla, he was only interested temporarily, but sooner or later he would have to live a good life with Noelle.
He thought she would understand.
When Tommy returned to the Baldwin Family’s house again, Noelle was still sitting by the bed in the bedroom. When he opened the door, a large cloud of smoke came up. Tommy frowned and his eyes passed through the smoke and fell on Noelle.
“Where’s Camilla?”
Noelle was stunned and then laughed out loud.
She extinguished the cigarette butt and asked, “Did she run away again?”
“You really know her whereabouts.” Tommy put the blame on Noelle again without saying anything, but this time he did not force the question, but directly asked someone to take Noelle to the beach.
Noelle couldn’t swim.
There was a little fear in her eyes. “Tommy, what are you doing?”
“Go down and find Camilla. I want to see her alive or dead.”
With Tommy’s order, Noelle was kicked into the sea.
Chapter 7
The cold seawater instantly submerged Noelle.
She struggled, but she sank deeper and deeper.
As she was fading away, she thought of her parents in her last life again. Perhaps they were also so desperate at that time?
Suddenly, a pair of big hands lifted her waist and a warm breath filled her mouth and nose. Noelle opened her eyes with difficulty, but saw an unexpected person–Louie.
On the shore, Tommy looked at the endless, calm sea with a frown. Someone beside him came over to comfort him, “Don’t worry, Mr. Baldwin. Miss Spencer is blessed by heaven and nothing will happen.”
Tommy did not respond to this sentence, but continued to stare at the sea.
Until the person next to him said again, “Madam, can she swim?”
Tommy’s body suddenly stiffened.
He forgot that Noelle could not swim.
He subconsciously wanted to take off his clothes and go to the sea, but he stopped abruptly as soon as he raised his foot. He whispered, “Since she would plot to harm Camilla, she must have left a trick for herself.”
When he said this, Tommy’s eyes flashed with pain.
He never knew that jealousy could make a person change so much.
Noelle used to be a very kind person.
After a night, the sea was still calm.
Tommy felt a little irritated for some reason. He got into the car and took out a cigarette to light for himself. He remembered that when Baldwin Group was just starting out, they almost got home in the early morning every day because of business talks.
If the business talks were successful, they would open a bottle of the cheapest wine to celebrate.
If they failed, they would stay together and smoke the same cigarette.
Noelle always sighed. “I don’t like the smell of cigarettes. I hope we can succeed soon. I don’t want to smoke anymore.”
But now...
Tommy looked at the fireworks flickering at his fingertips and thought of Noelle smoking during the day.
He always felt that Noelle seemed different now.
The phone suddenly rang. It was Tommy’s friend calling.
“Tommy, did you throw sister-in-law into the sea? Even if you have changed your mind, isn’t it a bit too much to do this? After all, sister-in-law has been with you since you started from scratch. It is said that a wife who has been with you for a long time will be a good wife–”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
Tommy interrupted his friend and raised his hand to pinch his forehead. “She cherishes her life very much and will not let herself get hurt. Maybe she has secretly gone ashore and returned home.”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, but he couldn’t help but persuade, “But you and sister-in-law have been together for so many years. Don’t really play it too much.”
Tommy suddenly sighed and his expression softened. “After eight years of marriage, she has devoted herself to her career. There is no passion between us. I am just pursuing a moment of excitement. When I have enough fun, I will naturally return to my family. What’s more… Noelle drank alcohol in the early years and hurt her body. It is difficult for her to get pregnant. I just want to be with a child.”
After speaking, Tommy hung up the phone.
Little did he know that Noelle was packing her things in the Baldwin Family’s villa. She put the divorce certificate she had just received into her bag and then took out a big iron bucket and threw all the photos of herself and Tommy into it.
After a fire, her past with Tommy was gone.
“Let’s go.”
Noelle glanced at Louie.
The two of them walked past the servants who fainted on the ground and strode out of the Baldwin Family.
Tommy, I hope I will never see you again in this life.
